THE DEAD ONES THEBES HAS DISAVOWED? HUMAN RIGHTS, THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND THE RETURN OF ANTIGONE

Antigone is one of the most recreated works of literature, however, Sophocles' original work remains intact - this is because the universe and the dilemmas presented by the tragedian are still very contemporary. This work discusses the symbolic return of Sophocles' Antigone in the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic, through postmortem dignity.
